Sometimes the smallest things make the biggest difference.
Each of us can improve our community by our individual and collective actions. Each of us has that responsibility. If we act with courtesy an caring, the Hawaii we value will be strengthened.
This list is only a starting point. Add to the list any acts which enhance our people and our land. Have your children make their own lists. Then share the lists with family, friends and neighbors and watch the results.
The "Live Aloha" bumper sticker is a declaration of commitment. We've chosen the 'ohi'a lehua flower as our symbol. With strength of spirit the 'ohi'a lehua pushes forth from the silent volcanic landscape and grows. Favored by Hi'iaka i-ka-poli-Pele (sister of Pele), the 'ohi'a lehua takes many forms from tall trees to low shrubs, adorned with leaves of varied shapes and blossoms of varied hues. The 'ohi'a lehua's diversity, simple beauty and enduring strength mirror the diversity, simple beauty and enduring strength of Hawaii.
We acknowledge Sig Zane for contributing his 'ohi'a lehua design, and the Hawaii Community Foundation for its sponsorship.
